We ate here on Easter Sunday so the place was busy but the friendly service never let us down, bringing good food and filling our glasses. The chef went around the tables offering second helpings of the main course and, with coffee left glasses and a bottle of grappa on the table. the food was traditional fare but all the... More

A family run restaurant which is in the beautiful town of Chiusi in Toscana. All around the town one is reminded of the Great Etruscans and their amazing civilisation. We have eaten at this restaurant four times. It is simple but delicious food. One can taste the freshness of each ingredient! Really good food. A very impressive cellar- if they... More

We ate there in October, and were the only patrons other than an elderly lady who appeared to be an Italian aristocrat with un giovannoto. The food was good, if uninspired.

The wine list was wonderful, but we chose the house red... More
